"They say love and construction don't mix. By that logic, hate and construction may as well be condemned. LaRynn Lavigne and Deacon Leeds had one short and contentious summer fling when they were teens-certainly nothing to build a foundation on. But a decade later, when their grandmothers have left them with shared ownership of their dilapidated Santa Cruz building, they're thrust back together and have to figure out how to brace up the pieces. LaRynn has the money, but in order to access her trust, she has to be married. Deacon has the construction expertise, but lacks the funds. A deal is struck: Marry for however long it takes to fix up the property, collect a profit, and cut ties. Thrust into a home without walls, LaRynn and Deacon quickly learn that it's easy to hide behind emotional ones, even in a marriage. But with all the exposure and pitfalls that come with living with the opposite sex (and none of the perks, much to their growing mutual frustration) they'll also have to learn what it means to truly cooperate as a team. Filled with crackling tension, The Co-op is a steamy second chance romance about restoration and renovation, and uncovering all the things that build character within ourselves. It's about the never-ending construction project that partnership is, and finding enjoyment at every stage"--

Wenn aus Fake Dating plötzlich echte Liebe wird: »Sterne, die im Sommer tanzen« ist ein humorvoller Liebesroman mit ganz viel Herz rund um eine idyllische Kleinstadt in Oregon , eine leicht verrückte Hobby-Farmerin und einen Sterne-Koch aus New York. Sage Byrd liebt ihr Leben in der beschaulichen Kleinstadt Spunes, deren Gemeinschaft wie eine zweite Familie für sie ist. Nur dem Sommerfest sieht sie dieses Jahr mit gemischten Gefühlen entgegen: Als Single kann sie mal wieder nicht am Kochwettbewerb teilnehmen - im Gegensatz zu ihrem Ex, der gerade mal ein Jahr nach der Trennung bereits verlobt ist! Für Sterne-Koch Fisher Lange aus New York ist der Sommer in Spunes dagegen eine erzwungene Auszeit. Er muss den Tod seiner Schwester verarbeiten und sich um seine trauernde 15-jährige Nichte Indy kümmern. Als attraktiver Single in einer Kleinstadt erregt Fisher allerdings schnell mehr Aufmerksamkeit, als ihm lieb ist. Das bringt seine neue Nachbarin Sage auf eine scheinbar geniale Idee: Warum geben sie nicht einfach den Sommer über vor, ein Paar zu sein? Dummerweise ist so ein Sommer kürzer als gedacht, und die Fake Dates fühlen sich bald gar nicht mehr so sehr nach Fake an ... Tarah DeWitts spicy Sommer roman erzählt eine zauberhafte Liebesgeschichte. Wer die »Gilmore Girls« oder »Virgin River« liebt, wird sich auch in Spunes wie zu Hause fühlen.

When falling in love is the punchline... Farley Jones is a loud, chaotic, and hilariously clever standup comedian on the way to stardom. The only thing she loves more than the rush of telling jokes in front of a revved-up audience is her hot older manager Meyer, though he doesn't have a clue. Keeping her feelings hidden from him is agony (a tragedy, even-in lieu of flowers, please send cash...) but Meyer has been Farley's closest and most treasured friend, not to mention vital to the trajectory of her career. She can't risk ruining their relationship by telling him how she truly feels. After all, who else would have the patience to put up with a hot mess like her? A former standup star himself, single father Meyer Harrigan left the stage years ago in order to focus on raising his deaf daughter Hazel. Farley has been everything to them since she came into their lives three years ago, and despite his grumpiness, his protectiveness over Hazel, and his disdain for public attention, Meyer will do anything to make her standup dreams come true. When the biggest opportunity of Farley's career comes along and forces the pair to fake-date in order to stir up publicity, it doesn't take long for their act to bring all those other funny feelings out into the open. Like most matters of the heart, it quickly begins to feel like anything but a joke. Touching on the creative spirit and all that comes with sharing that gift, Tarah DeWitt's Funny Feelings is a swoony story about friendship, love, and looking for the laugh in life.
